Legal name Kollan House. Serves as the key operational figure behind MetaDAO LLC (Republic of the Marshall Islands DAO LLC, 852 Lagoon Rd, Majuro, MH 96960) and sole Director of the Futarchy Governance SPC (Cayman Islands). While Proph3t is the public face and mechanism architect, Nallok handles legal structure, business development, treasury operations, and ecosystem coordination. ## Significance - **Legal infrastructure**: Built MetaDAO's legal wrapper — the RMI DAO LLC + Cayman SPC structure that addresses the Ooki DAO precedent (DAOs without legal wrappers face general partnership liability) - **Futarchy as a Service (FaaS)**: Proposed and led development of FaaS (March 2024) — the concept that futarchy governance can be offered as infrastructure to other DAOs, not just MetaDAO - **Mechanism pragmatism**: Noted that Robin Hanson wanted random proposal outcomes — "impractical for production." This insight drove MetaDAO's simplification of futarchy theory into deployable mechanism design - **Treasury operations**: Co-manages multi-sig for MetaDAO treasury. Involved in OTC trades, liquidity management, and compensation proposals - **Compensation structure**: Nallok and Proph3t share a performance-based package (2% of supply per $1B FDV increase, up to 10% at $5B) — itself a statement about incentive alignment through futarchic governance ## Key Contributions to KB - Primary source for futarchy mechanism simplification claims — the gap between Hanson's theory and production reality - Operational knowledge of MetaDAO's legal structure (RMI DAO LLC, Cayman SPC) - FaaS proposal history — the scaling thesis for futarchy governance - Contact: kollan@metadao.fi ## Relationship to KB - [[futarchy implementations must simplify theoretical mechanisms for production adoption because original designs include impractical elements that academics tolerate but users reject]] — Nallok's direct observation about Hanson's impractical proposals - [[Ooki DAO proved that DAOs without legal wrappers face general partnership liability making entity structure a prerequisite for any futarchy-governed vehicle]] — Nallok built the legal structure that addresses this - [[futarchy-governed entities are structurally not securities because prediction market participation replaces the concentrated promoter effort that the Howey test requires]] — Nallok engaged legal counsel to investigate this question --- Relevant Entities: - [[metadao]] — co-founded - [[futardio]] — operates - [[proph3t]] — co-founder Topics: - [[internet finance and decision markets]]
